The Detroit Tigers defeated the New York Yankees 5–3 on June 22 at Comerica Park, staying under the 8.5-run Vegas total in a defensive-minded affair. Detroit's pitching staff dominated, striking out 12 Yankees batters while allowing just seven hits and three earned runs despite posting a 3.82 ERA; the Tigers' bullpen proved the difference, as New York managed only seven hits and struck out 12 times themselves. The home team's offense was modest but sufficient, scratching out nine hits with one homer and five RBIs, while the Yankees' .768 OPS couldn't overcome 12 strikeouts and limited run support. Detroit's error-free defense and pitching control—allowing just two walks—offset the Tigers' own .710 OPS and .235 batting average, as both lineups struggled to generate consistent pressure. The Tigers' pitching advantage and ability to strand runners proved decisive in a game that hinged on execution rather than power. With the win, Detroit improves its standing in a competitive AL Central race while the Yankees' strikeout-heavy approach continues to limit their offensive ceiling.
